Electoral collide-o-scope: smooches and furyTwo snapshots of the right and left -- such as! -- at this increasingly hysterical election moment that I think say it all:
This month's cover of The Progressive:
And an AP "shot" from one of Palin's Florida rallies yesterday. (The one where someone yelled "kill him!" or the one where they screamed at an African American sound man to "sit down, boy!"? And weren't these kids just at LoveFest last Saturday?)
Of course, it seems right now we're winning -- so say these wonderful things loud and proud, lest you lose your chance soon. And yet, we're losing ground on Prop 8 -- help out already! It's an upside-down autumn, and I feel like wearing shoes on my feet and hamburgers eating people.
Shout outs: Fierce bloggers and others to help stay sane during all this kerfuffle: Megan at Jezebel (this should be taught at blogging school), Ta-Nehisi Coates at the Atlantic, of course the fab Kos who is freaking killing it this election with the wonky deets, and, as ever, Cathy Horyn's coverage of the global fashion weeks -- because I'm far too busy frantically, panickedly checking the politisphere to measure this season's hemlines. Plus, that third grade class in Alaska. Stay golden, kids!
